        We will NEVER be disarmed in America like you in Britain. You are helpless victims of your government.

        Who cares how many Americans shoot each other? It's their inalienable right, blah, blah, blah, it's not even news any more Just let them argue about it among themselves, it's nothing to do with us. If the argument goes on too long, they can all get their guns out and settle it.

        Either responding to his expectation that the polls will support his shift on the issue, or his original stance on the issue was a fabrication to gain votes in an earlier election, and he used the first incident that came along as justification for shifting to his true stance.

        When politicians claim to support gun owners, in order to get gun owners to vote for them, but then betray that claim in office, gun owners do not forget about it. Tennessee's former governor is in the same boat, trying to convince gun owners that he didn't really betray them.

        Out of interest, how many gun owners will be forced to give up their guns because of the bill?

        I don't know all the details of Vermont's new gun control laws, but there appears to be an issue of some clauses combining to make a potential catch 22 situation on leaving certain guns to heirs, as those guns can no longer be sold or transferred.
